Chrome 130 fails to start during local execution on MAC -> Error: WebSocket connection closed (Failed to dispose lockfile)

[TsvetanTsvetkovClevertap]

What is your Scenario?

Trying to run the framework.

After updating Chrome to latest current official version
130.0.6723.59

TestCafe is crashing on initialisation. Chrome would not start.

What is the Current behavior?

When the framework is initiated, Chrome opens up for some miliseconds and closes immediately afterwards

What is the Expected behavior?

To work

What is the public URL of the test page? (attach your complete example)

N/A
It is irrelevant

What is your TestCafe test code?

Irrelevant in this case, config file is more important

Your complete configuration file

We use configuration files. This is the common.js which sets the main execution params, then this is merged to the specific
"suite" config files which use various filtering and addition settings per test suite.

Your complete test report

Here is the DEBUG=testcafe* log
